The food was hot and fresh. This sonic always serves hot and fresh food. Only once they didn't put a straw so now I just check to make sure they put one in the bag before I leave.

Ordered a single drink. It took 12 minutes to get it. There were 3 other cars at the restaurant. No explanation was given why it took so long. This has happened multiple times.

I ordered a chili cheese combo with mozzarella sticks, and I asked for ranch before I paid. I got my food. The lady walked off so fast. I couldn’t tell her to get me ranch so I pressed the button again for ranch and they still have me wait. Two more minutes. My food was cold and I wanted a refund so when they came to my car. They still brought the ranch and I asked for a refund and they said they don’t do that.
. I want my money back Because the food is cold and they don’t want to remake it and they said there’s not a manager on shift I will never visit this location again so I need to know how can I get my refund?

Your guaranteed to get cold hash browns and cold fries. Why don't they just cook these to order?

Sonic is usually one of my favorite quick stops, but this particular location hasn’t measured up to others in the area. The idea of “hot and fast” doesn’t always apply here. While the food itself can be fine once it finally arrives, the wait times feel much longer than they should for a drive-in.

I’ve had times where drinks showed up wrong or out of things during peak hours, which is frustrating when that’s half the reason you pull in. Burgers and coneys taste like Sonic classics, but too often they arrive lukewarm, as if they sat waiting to be run out.

Service is also inconsistent. Some carhops are friendly, but others drop the order off without much effort to make sure it’s accurate. I’ve had small mistakes like missing condiments or sides, and while not a deal breaker, it adds up over time. The lot itself could use more attention too—it doesn’t have that same tidy look I’ve seen at better Sonic locations.

At its best, Sonic should be about convenience and speed, but this location just hasn’t nailed those basics. If it tightened up on service and kept food quality consistent, it would be much stronger. For now, it lags behind other nearby Sonics.

My father died yesterday and I finally felt like eating something. I came here and ordered 4 things and not one was correct. Not only did I waste money but it made me feel even worse….

So, I ordered a burger from the app. I asked for no ketchup and no lettuce. I got both and no tomato, which I wanted on my burger. Usually, they get the order right. Not this time.
